Hit or miss,
I can see why there is a dichotomy with the ratings. We purchased two of these for our detached garage. One of the lights gives off a relatively bright light, enough to find one’s way around with ease at night. The other light was not as bright. The light has a hi-lo switch, and even on the ‘hi’ setting, the dud-light gave off only a dim glow. We did not return it for another light because after the hastle of installing this light with the solar panel on the roof, it didn’t seem that important to us. For future purchasers, remember to give it a test run before installing.

|Got a bright one! Lucky I guess,
Reading from the reviews I wasn’t expecting much from such a low price solar shed light. I went ahead and ordered anyway and I’m very very pleased with the results. The light itself came almost fully pre-charged which aided in not only knowing how bright it would ultimately be, but also was useful in locating a good spot for it in the shed before permanent mounting.
So out of the box you get a
* solar panel with hardwired 16ft cable
* exterior mounting bracket with swivel feature
* interior light and mounting all in one
* all screws etc
* strange L shaped metal rod which appears to serve no useful purpose due to the design of the mounting bracket!
The light itself is super bright for a solar led; we have a small shed at 6’x 8′ and it saturates it with enough light to find even the smallest item or even work in there. I couldn’t say how long the light lasts on a single charge however, but it’s perfect for popping in and grabbing some tool as the day gets longer. The light has a half/full option where the top row of leds can be switched off to increase the duration that the lights last at the expense of brightness – nice touch. There’s also a small red led to indicate that it’s charging and comes with a one foot toggle pull string to switch the light on or off.
My only gripe, which was mentioned in another review, was the connector for the panel to the light was L shaped not straight through as shown in the amazon product pic. This meant making a hole about the width of your finger to be able to push the connector into the shed and then having to silicon it all up to make it watertight. If it was a straight connector, the hole would barely be bigger than the cable itself. A surprisingly poorly thought out design given the rest of the product.
But the rest IS perfect and you cannot go wrong for the price.
